A provocative look at architecture-"exceptionally intelligent and original" (Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post Book World) Deyan Sudjic-"probably the most influential figure in architecture you've never heard of" - argues that architecture, far from being auteur art, must be understood as a naked expression of power. From the grandiose projects of Stalin and Hitler to the "theme park" excess of today's presidential libraries, Sudjic goes behind the scenes of history's great manipulators of building propaganda-and exposes Rem Koolhaas, Frank Gehry, and other architects in a disturbing new light. This controversial book is essential reading for all those interested in the power of architecture-or the architecture of power. * A Washington Post Book World Best Book of the Year

The Edifice Complex explores the intimate and inextricable relationship between power, money and architecture in the twentieth century. How and why have presidents, prime ministers, mayors, millionaires and bishops come to share such a fascination with grand designs? From Blair to Mitterrand, from Hitler to Stalin to Saddam Hussein, architecture has become an end in itself, as well as a means to an end. This is a book of genuine timeliness, throwing new light on the motivations of the rich and powerful around the world - and on the ways they seek to affect us.

"The philosophical impetus of this work stems from the process of perspectival redefinition, the resultant alteration in perceptual space being of primary importance. This could be viewed as the meta-text of the poem and forms the basis for an iconic realization of this concept in "EDIFICE"." --

This thesis addresses the relationship between identity and structure within the American West. By imagining the text as a body, an edifice, or a thing constructed, much like a built structure, the essays contend with decay and disintegration. Similarly, as buildings change over time, so does identity. As for whether or not identity works in patterns of decay is inevitably unclear. But using memory and recollection to uncover different layers of identity mirrors the process of decay, if only on a superficial level. By examining the similarities engendered in revealing for both identity and structure, these essays contend that every identity is a body constructed. These essays consider: Are identity and experience ever divorced? If not, how does one abandon the character of our fathers? Our mothers? Why are we not near mirror images of our parents0́9, friends0́9, and siblings0́9 motivations and inspirations? Or perhaps we are. In childhood, personal expression appears to be a limited thing. As a child improves her vocabulary and her ability to express herself, her awareness of self becomes more complicated and thus, how she imagines herself in emotional and characteristic proximity to her peers changes. While the complications of forming an identity construct around experience, the body of edifice decays over time. Likewise, in these essays, when identity becomes more complicated, the structure of the essays disintegrates. In doing this, the hope is that the reader will have to strip the traditional approach to reading prose0́4relying on narrative, connecting with characters0́4and find for themselves the identity within each essay and the collection as a whole.

A study which reveals active volcanoes to be dynamically evolving structures, the growth and development of which are punctuated by episodes of instability and subsequent structural failure. Edifice failure and consequent debris avalanche formation appears to occur, on average, at least four times a century, and similar behaviour is known to have occured at volcanoes on Mars and Venus. The book claims that hazard-mitigation strategies must now address the possibility of future collapse events which may be ten-times greater than that at Mount St Helens in 1980.
